The Zurich, Switzerland band Len Sander released their album "Phantom Garden" and with it came the beautiful song "Mendrake". The band dubs their own sound "space pop", and though it alludes to the vibe their music creates it cannot fully describe the magnitude. No explanation can. This song like so much of Len Sander's music excels at filling space, making an empty home feel full and warm when the volume is just right. "Mendrake" echoes countless heroes in the history of electronic music, and yet comes across as completely original, as if they are paying homage as they break new ground.
